Review: Born Standing Up: A Comic's Life

Born Standing Up: A Comic's Life Born Standing Up: A Comic's Life by Steve Martin
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

NIcely narrated by Martin himself, this is a very good artist's biography. I was especially impressed with the progressive and even confrontational nature of his earliest stage comedy - refusing to let the audience have a punchline and release the tension built up.
